Event Overview

The internet is overflowing with tantalizing offers of “free legal advice” and “free legal documents” for startups. If you think that sounds too good to be true, you’re right. Blogs are unlikely to provide adequate answers to complex legal questions, and relying on automated document generators can open you up to unexpected problems that can prove fatal to a start-up.

Establishing the appropriate legal structure is a key component of launching a new business, but most entrepreneurs have neither the resources nor the time to focus on legal matters. After all, they’re busy trying to turn their ideas into reality. So what’s the best way for startups to secure a solid legal footing without breaking the bank?
